[U.S. August PPI Data May Become Market Focus, Tariff Cost Accumulation Raises Concerns]
U.S. Treasury yields edged higher during the Asian trading session as the market closely watches the upcoming key inflation data. Danske Bank Research analyst Emilie Herbo pointed out that the August Producer Price Index (PPI) will receive more attention than usual, not only because it is released earlier than the Consumer Price Index (CPI) but also because the July data significantly exceeded market expectations. She emphasized that this data could provide important clues for assessing the ongoing accumulation of tariff-related costs. The August PPI is scheduled for release on Wednesday, while the CPI will be published on Thursday.
